Click to expand...

I assume you are getting Properties via right-click. See:

Right-click is slow or weird behavior caused by context menu handlers -

Right-click is extremely slow only when Network is enabled -
http://windowsxp.mvps.org/rcdelay.htm

Right click causes an error and crashes Explorer.exe after installing
Windows XP SP2 - http://www.winxptutor.com/sp2/divxcrash.htm

Manage the context-menu entries for folders, drives and Namespace
objects - http://windowsxp.mvps.org/context_folders.htm
